New York Central Shows
Large Equipment Orders
New York, Oct. 27.—A, statement of
the very large purchases, since the
war began, of train eouipment for
the use of the New York Central
Lines, was made here to-day on au
thorization of Alfred 11. Smith, pres
ident of the big railroad system.
The facts given out, which include
prices and comprise the aggregate of
vast transactions, form perhaps the
most comprehensive basis for judg
ment and comparison recently dis
closed. and are most significant in
ccnnection with various phases of
present railroad conditions.
Summary of the grand totals of
the tabular statement shows that the
New York Central system purchased 1
during the three years and two
months since the war began (August,
1914) locomotives, freight cars and
passenger coaches costing $84,324,735.
These same units at present-day
prices would cost the companies
$193,023,610 —just $108,703,874 more
money, or an increase in the aggre
gate of 128.91 per cent!
This this railroad system by
prompt, heavy buying when war
broke out. and in early preparation
against the present existing dire
ccmblnation of extraordinary de
mands for freight srvlce. high prices
and shortage of materials and labor,
gained an equity of a cool sloo*ooo,ooo
—based on present values.

FOR VICTORY
"The End of the Millenium"
Will Be Discussed by
Dr. Hawes
To make the national service of
Prayer For Victory notable, the choir
leader. Mrs. W. F. Harris, has se
cured special music for Market
Square Presbyterian Church, which
will be sun* by the choir. This
church has a large number of men
and women in service. Some are in
France. Meade Detweiler is serving
as an ambulancier. Irvin Sloathour
is with Pershing. Some are with
Sim*. Some are in the Rainbow Di
vision. Some are in the aviation
corps. Artillery, infantry, cavalry,
machine gun companies, have taken
their quota from Market Square.
In the Army the hurch has one
colonel, two majors, ten captain.--,
seven first lieutenants, one second

; several petty officers. And in addi
tion the names of two women are on
the list for whom prayer will he

Dr. Hawes will preach a sermon ap
propriate to the occasion. His sub
ject is, "Prayers for Victory; Prayers
for Victory."
The evening service will be as
; notable, in a different way, as the
morning. Before going away on
j his vacation the pastor preached a
series of sermons on the Second Ad
vent which attracted much notice,
j He announced then that there was
| one more subject which he would
| discuss after he had returned from
' his vacation. That sermon will be
| preached Sunday night. It deals
} with the "End of the Millennium."
j Persons who heard the earlier ser
| mons will want to hear this one.
Owing to the Pan-Protestant tneet-
I ing Wednesday night there will not
be any prayer-meeting. The Chrts-
